Designing furniture, yes, but designing it ecologically is even better!
Aware of the ecological problems of our time, the company has been working on an environmental approach to its products since 2007. For you and your children, we design products that are healthy for you and the planet, with solvent-free water-based varnishes, solid wood and the use of new-generation panels that are totally environmentally friendly. So we keep VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions to a minimum! Responsible consumption means reducing your ecological impact, and that also goes for your furniture! To ensure your satisfaction, we offer you a complete range of products and we are always ready to listen to your needs and develop them further.
How are ABC Meubles products environmentally friendly?
Ecological and sustainable solid wood
‘Quality and innovation are our daily objectives’.
The pine used for the majority of our products comes from the Landes region in France (a controlled management forest), which is managed sustainably. It is recognised for its ongoing monitoring of wood resources. Having solid wood furniture in your home will warm up your interior and add character to the room! Choose solid wood furniture that's made in France and is environmentally friendly!
Water-based varnishes and VOC emissions
For the well-being of the whole family, even the youngest, ABC Meubles prefers to use solvent-free water-based varnishes, thereby limiting VOC emissions. We use the ‘finger-joint’ assembly technique to minimise the use of glue in the design of our furniture. For glue, we use E1 glue (maximum emission equal to 1mg/m3) used in the manufacture of furniture for babies, children and adults.
Made in France: going local!
The raw materials and components for our products come from France, helping to reduce our carbon footprint. Wood is a noble and elegant material, appreciated for its ecological properties. Wood is trendy and timeless, think about it! Find out more
Less packaging, less waste
Abc Meubles tries to minimise packaging as much as possible to reduce waste. We also use an outside company to manage production waste. Everything can be recovered and transformed! Wood scraps are reduced to briquettes that can be used for heating.
Eco Impact Score
ABC Meubles is strengthening its commitment to the environment by having the environmental and social impact of its products assessed by Eco Impact, an independent organisation. Thanks to the Eco Impact Score, each piece of furniture is rated from A to E according to objective criteria (raw materials, manufacturing, end of life, social conditions). This assessment guarantees transparency, continuous improvement and the fight against greenwashing. Twenty or so products have already received very good scores (A or B), including the 2-seater chest bed, rated A with a 46% reduction in environmental impact compared with a median product. ABC Meubles is thus continuing its drive towards more responsible, sustainable and transparent production. To find out more
